An Excuse and a Lot of Awesome

So you may have noticed I still haven't posted a video after Life in a Day.  Well, I might not have done my own video recently, but I did shoot and compile footage for another person's compilation video.  That person is known as RoxinPunch on YouTube, and she is awesome.  I'm really sad that I didn't cross paths with her at VidCon, because I really would have liked to talk to her about vlogging and building an audience (she just broke 1000 subscribers).  Anyway, she should have a video coming out soon and it's possible that some of my footage will be in it.  Whether or not it is, you should keep an eye out for the video, and if you are a subscribing type of person, subscribe to her channel.  I think you'll be happy.  She's got quite a persona. http://www.youtube.com/roxinpunch

Now if your name is Lizzle, you've been sitting around for two weeks wondering WHERE ARE THESE VIDEOS JULIA SHOT AND PROMISED.  Well, bad news, I was moving all of last week, got home from summer research yesterday, and am leaving for a short family road trip five minutes ago.  I'll be gone until Friday, but I promise that I'll upload one video per day (no strict midnight deadline) when I get back, at least for the two weeks until I go back to school.  It's a short term way to clear out some idea clutter and get some vlogging practice.  And the reason that I didn't edit and upload a video yesterday was this: http://www.fanfiction.net/u/2269863/Less_Wrong  This is the profile page for the author of Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality, a fanfiction where Harry Potter, due to certain circumstances, grew up to be very much like Artemis Fowl.  It is scientific, rational, silly, and absolutely hilarious.  There's a whole section that reads rather like Ender's Game.  And it is AWESOME.  I linked to you the author's profile instead of directly to the story because I encourage you to click the PDF download link from that page.  If you download the PDF, it looks almost EXACTLY like an actual Harry Potter book.  Be warned, it can be very hard to put down.

Okay, I'll be back on Friday or Saturday to start my video-a-day marathon.  Have a great week, everyone!

  1. I am mildly ashamed to admit that I have already read and enjoyed said fanfic.
